 Simply a drop of water falling into a plate of water.
Lit with speedlite on camera and small slave flash aimed at background.
Slight bit of sharpening, and cloned out a few drops and a hot reflection in the middle of the crown. Also adjusted levels to deepen the color.

Nice plop, but I would have liked to see it bigger.

A good bit of motion-freezing, perhaps a little on the small size, the plop itself seems a bit cramped over there. 5

Good catch but your image is too small to be fully appreciated.
